A Comprehensive Guide To Audi Advanced Key From Start To Finish
What is the Audi Advanced Key?
Audi vehicles are designed to provide comfort and convenience, which is why the new models in our showroom feature keyless entry and start. This allows you to start your car and begin driving, while keeping the key fob in your pocket or purse.
The system is controlled by proximity sensors located in the doors, trunks and key fobs. Here are a few things you need to know about Audi Advanced Key:
1. Proximity Detection
Audi proximity detection allows you to open and get into your vehicle without having take the key out of your purse or pocket. This authorization and access system works through automatic data exchange between your convenience key and your vehicle which allows you to open the trunk and doors, and even activate the engine with just a click on your key.
A proximity sensor based on sound, also known as a capacitive proximity sensor, makes use of acoustic waves to detect the presence of objects in close proximity. The sensors produce a signal using an oscillator. This signal is transmitted into the air by the microphone that converts it into an audio file. The audio files are evaluated to determine the degree of similarity and how close they are. If they are similar enough, the system will transmit a wake-up signal to key and transmit an ID signal that is in line with the vehicle.
The first step toward a more pleasant driving experience is proximity detection. The Audi advanced key also has remote start capabilities that lets you initiate your vehicle's engine without leaving the range of your key FOB. This can be helpful when you are carrying groceries into the trunk, placing children in their seats, or packing for an family trip.
Audi pre sense basic is a safety feature that allows you to avoid accidents by taking action before an accident occurs. It blends the data of different systems, including the front camera and radar sensors of Audi side assist to determine the probability of a collision, and also warn drivers. It can also trigger the automatic brake system at speeds up to 250 km/h (155,3) and notify the driver via the head-up or virtual cockpit display.

2. Authentication
The Audi advanced key system is directly connected to the car's sensors whenever you hit the lock button on your key fob. It sends a message to the car's computer that confirms that it is an authorized key fob. This safeguards against unauthorised access to the vehicle without a valid key fob.
The key fob can also be used to start the vehicle from pockets or purses. The Audi advanced key system uses proximity sensors inside the doors and the lid of the trunk, paired with the radio pulse generator on the key fob. When the key fob is within five feet of the vehicle, the sensors will detect your presence and unlock the doors. Then, when you use the door handle or open the trunk, the vehicle recognizes your key and kicks off the engine.
You can also use your key fob to activate the start-up feature of your vehicle's push button. You can start the engine by pressing the Start/Stop buttons built into the center console if the key fob is in your purse or pocket. The car's sensors check the authenticity of the key fob and once it's confirmed the engine will begin.
The Audi advanced key system also includes a keyless entry feature that allows you to unlock your car's doors with a touch of the handle on the exterior of the door. This makes it incredibly practical when your hands are full or you're wearing gloves, such as when you're carrying your groceries or kids into the vehicle. The system has a trunk release button that allows you to open the trunk by using an action. This is a great option for those who have to carry many food items or children into the vehicle.

3. Keyless Entry
Keyless entry systems can be a huge convenience when you are carrying children, groceries or other gear. You can unlock your car by simply touching a sensor or button mounted on the handle of the door (some models also have this technology inside the lock). If you're carrying a key fob, it'll send an alert to activate the car's sensors so that it can sense that you are nearby and that your finger is on the button. This will prevent unauthorised use of the vehicle by making sure that only you have access to the doors.
Another feature commonly offered by keyless entry systems is the capability to remote start your car without a key. This is done by through sensors in the trunk, the tailgate, and sometimes even in the doors of the vehicle. These sensors will turn on the engine of the vehicle and then unlock the doors when the fob is within a certain distance of the car, typically, around 5 feet. Then, you can press a button to start your vehicle. This is a great technique to warm your car prior to when you leave for work or when it is cold outside.
Some of the more sophisticated versions of keyless entry don't require the use of a key fob. The cars can be unlocked and started by using a smartphone application. This is a great option for business owners or families who would like their employees to have easy access to their company vehicles. Certain keyless entry systems even remember the driver's preferred seating position as well as the temperature of the cabin. This is a huge time saver when you're driving into the parking lot.
Some of the most advanced versions of keyless entry systems come with an activated rear hatch that will automatically close and secure your cargo space by a simple tap of your foot. You'll find this technology in many Audi automobiles and, depending on the model, it may be included as a standard feature or as an upgrade that costs money. Be aware that these systems are not completely secure and could be hacked by savvy thieves with some technical expertise or tools.

Once you have the correct code and a clear signal, the vehicle will allow you to lock or start the vehicle.
By pressing an button, you are able to easily connect your Audi A4 and begin driving without the need to look around in your purse or pockets to find the keys.
